Washington State University wide receiver Kyle Williams has confirmed he will not be transferring and will remain in Pullman for the upcoming season. Williams, a senior, made the announcement on his Twitter account on Monday.
Williams, who is entering his fourth year in the program, has been a key contributor to the Cougars offense since his freshman season. He has caught at least one touchdown in each of his three seasons in Pullman, including a career-high six touchdowns in 2018.
The 6-foot-2, 205-pound receiver has been a reliable target for quarterback Anthony Gordon, catching a team-high 46 passes for 633 yards and four touchdowns last season. He also had a career-high nine receptions for 119 yards and two touchdowns against Arizona State in 2018.
Williams’ decision to remain in Pullman is a huge boost for the Cougars offense, which is expected to be one of the best in the Pac-12 this season. With Williams in the fold, Washington State will have one of the most experienced and talented receiving corps in the conference.
The Cougars are coming off a 11-2 season in 2018 and are expected to contend for the Pac-12 North title this year. With Williams returning, Washington State will have one of the most potent offenses in the conference and should be a force to be reckoned with in 2019.
Williams’ decision to remain in Pullman is great news for the Cougars and their fans. He has been an integral part of the team’s success over the past three seasons and his presence will be key to Washington State’s success this year.
